【Beginner】step1：初级入门
A: I’m going to the beauty parlor. Do you want to come too?
B: Sure. Let’s go. What are you going to have done?
A: I want to have a foot massage and a haircut.
B: A foot massage sounds like a great idea. They are very relaxing. I’d also like to have a mudpack on my face. It’s supposed to help with my complexion.
A: Good idea. We should also get pedicures and manicures.
B: This could become a very expensive trip to the beauty parlor!
A: I think it’s a good idea to pamper yourself occasionally. Don’t you agree?
B: Oh, I agree. We both work hard and a little beauty treatment can relieve stress.
A: Maybe we should try a thai massage too.
B: What’s special about a thai massage?
A: That’s when the masseuse walks on your back and massages you with her feet.
B: Sounds painful!
【Intermediate】中级进阶
A: I hate it when footballers spit on the football pitch during a game. It’s disgusting. I wonder why they do it?
B: I’ve no idea, but spitting is common in many countries.
A: Isn’t it impolite and unsanitary?
B: It’s certainly unsanitary. There are many customs in other countries that may seem strange to us. For example, in Thailand, you should never touch someone on the head.
A: Interesting. I know that in some countries, you shouldn’t blow your nose in front of other people.
B: I think that’s a good custom. I hate it when people do that.
A: A common habit that I hate is chewing with your mouth open. Luckily, adults rarely do it. It seems that kids grow out of it.
B: Do you often scratch your head when you are thinking?
A: Yes, I do. I wonder why people do that? Oh look, I’m doing it now!
B: I rub my chin when I’m thinking. My mother scratches her nose.
A; I’ve got a question for you. Which part of the body do you find most attractive.
B: oh, the eyes-definitely. I really think you can tell a lot about a person’s personality from their eyes.
A: I agree. Which part of the body do you find least attractive?
B: the feet! Why are people’s feet so ugly?
A: I don’t know, but according to this magazine survey, most people agree with you that the feet are the most unattractive part of the body and that eyes are the most attractive.
B: Really? What else does the survey say?
